Product Description:
From the New York Times bestselling author of Ransom comes an exquisite tender tale of love, adventure and passion!
In feudal England, Elizabeth Montwright barely escaped the massacre that destroyed her family and exiled her from her ancestral castle. Bent on revenge, she rode again through the fortress gates, disguised as a peasant...to seek aid from Geoffrey Berkley, the powerful baron who had routed the murderers.
He heard her pleas, resisted her demands, and vowed to seduce his beautiful subject. Yet as Elizabeth fought the warrior's caresses, love flamed for this gallant man who must soon champion her cause...and capture her spirited heart!

This novel was presented as a companion to Honor's Splendour. They do not have the same characters but the hero is still a dark handsome baron. I was pleased with the book and wish Julie Garwood would write a sequel. I want more of the baron and his wild bride.

I have just read this book and ill admit I was worried at very first because of all the bad reviews I read but this book was great! Garwood has a way of writing that makes me apart of the book and I love that. It was funny and cute and I'll deffinetly read it again!

Elizabeth Montwright was just a teenager when she watched her entire family be slaughtered at the hands of brutal warriors. Taking to the woods near her childhood home, Elizabeth waited for her father's overlord, Baron Geoffrey Berkley, to return to the Montwright lands and dispel the raiders who invaded her home. When she meets the fiercesome, arrogant knight called The Hawk, Elizabeth can't help but fall under his spell. She wants nothing more than for her family's deaths to be avenged, but she can't help it if she falls in love along the way...
Whenever you're in the mood for a well thought out and elegantly told romance novel, look no further than Julie Garwood. From Honour's Splendour to The Prize to The Bride, Garwood's historicals are always on point. Gentle Warrior is no exception. Elizabeth was a passionate and fiesty heroine who was just headstrong enough that I admired her, without being so over the top and impetuous as to be annoying. In contrast, Geoffrey was a strong, dominant presence who would do anything to protect his bride, though he may have been ruled a bit too much by reason and order for my liking. Still, I enjoyed these two characters and this book served its purpose--to entertain and engage me with an artfully told story about two characters I could root for. And that's about all I could ask.

It is most unfortunate that it has taken me a long time to discover Garwood and her unique talent of bringing a historical period to life. The anguish that Elizabeth felt over a promise made to her murdered kinfolk versus her undeniable loyalty and love in which she feels for her husband is soul-shattering. This is one romance that I will not forget. This book was also a reminder as to why exactly I read historical romance. Alas, the true love of faded eras no longer exist...but one can always read, right?

One of her very first and definitely not her best. Very stiff, uneven, choppy writing. Borrow it, don't buy it, if you really want to read it.
